EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Parental Pathways to Reunification is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to bridging the critical gap in support for biological parents and caregivers involved in the child welfare system. Rooted in principles of equity, empowerment, and family preservation, the organization champions family reunification through a holistic approach that integrates advocacy, individualized support, and accessible resources.

Our mission is to promote successful reunification and long-term family stability by equipping parents with the tools they need to overcome systemic barriers—such as poverty, limited access to services, housing instability, and complex legal processes. Through individualized case management, legal and housing assistance, parenting education, and peer mentorship, we address both immediate needs and long-term developmental goals for families.

By collaborating with child welfare agencies, legal professionals, and community-based organizations, Parental Pathways to Reunification works to reduce the time children spend in foster care and ensure that reunification is not only possible, but sustainable. Our efforts are designed to shift the child welfare narrative—transforming it from one that separates families to one that uplifts, empowers, and reunites them.

Our vision: "A world where families are safely and swiftly reunited—empowered, supported, and strengthened through unity, regardless of socioeconomic background".
